Just as there are opportunities for Voluntary Service Overseas (VSO) for young people before they take【C2】______full-time employment, 【C3】______there are opportunities for overseas service for required technicians in developing countries. Some people,【C4】______those who retire early,【C5】______their technical and business skills in countries【C6】______there is a special need.
    So in considering voluntary or paid community service there are more opportunities than there【C7】______were when one first began work.【C8】______voluntary organizations have only a small full-time staff, and depend very much on volunteers and part-timers. This【C9】______that working relationships are
different from those in commercial organizations, and values may be different.【C10】______some ways they may seem more casual and less efficient, but one should not【C11】______them by commercial criteria. The people who work with them do so for different reasons and with different【C12】______, both personal and【C13】______.

【C7】
选项 A、before
B、lately
C、never
D、ever
答案D
解析 语义衔接题。由there are…than there…were可知，此处是用过去曾经有过的情况与现在作比较。四个选项中可表示“曾经”之意的副词只有[D]ever，故答案为[D]。空所在句不缺成分可确定本空应填一副词。[A]before为介词，故排除；[B]lately是表示时间的副词，与句中的when one first began work矛盾；[C]never与此处语义相反，故也排除。
